Anthropology Minor
Explore Humanity Across Time and Space
Anthropology is the study of humankind, human societies, and human cultures, including human's evolutionary history, behavior, and adaptations to different environments. It particularly focuses on how humans are different biologically, physically, socially, and culturally across time and space. The minor focuses on a holistic understanding of human behavior culturally, socially, psychologically and physically and uses a comparative analysis of social and cultural processes in various human populations.

About the Program
The program provides the basis on which people in a wide variety of human-contact fields can understand and function more effectively in different cultural settings and with people from other cultural backgrounds. It is also meant to develop a broader theoretical and substantive appreciation of the range of human behavior. The program is designed to provide a cross-cultural perspective to students in other programs or to supplement a major in another field, such as social science, international business, education, nursing or liberal studies.
